Lots of stable kernel updates

[Posted August 16, 2011 by corbet]

The 2.6.32.45, 2.6.33.18, and 3.0.2 stable updates are now available. They contain the usual pile of fixes. All three updates also include a change how TCP sequence numbers are generated; a (relatively) insecure 24-bit MD4 algorithm has been replaced by 32-bit MD5.

Note that the 3.0.3 update is already in the review process; it should be released on or after August 17.

Doesn't look like there is the usual patch-3.0.2.bz2 just a .gz.
